Are These Injectors Dodgy?

[ARTZ]

I'll never know why people skimp on injectors, maybe because they are small parts so people don't feel like they're getting much for their dollars, but they are probably the most important modification to get right during a turbo upgrade. You'll waste a lot of dyno time trying to figure out flat spots and fuelling issues if you get it wrong.

Keep shopping around eBay and be patient...sets of 555s come up for around $450-$600 second hand all the time.

since getting my new injectors I have seen the light here as well..

while a good turbo will make the power, a proper fuel system is just as, if not more crucial to a good overall "efficient" tune

My tuner spent a good hour drumming this into my head one day (over a couple beverages ) , not only are good injectors better for performance , they are also good for economy compared to cheap ones due to the better spray pattern , so for a regularly driven car (and especially with the price of fuel) you make your money back soon enough anyway

Fuel cost money, injectors cost money, the tune cost money, you will never make your money back lol but it definitely saves on the wallet.

380km from my last tank, still haven't got the warning light on. Thats with moderate to minor-aggressive driving.

I meant you will make the price difference between cheap/sub par injectors and good ones by having better fuel economy

I remember back quite a few years ago, when all these aftermarket bits were way too expensive, mate had a R33 GTSt fresh from japan with highflow turbo, highflow injectors, mines ecu etc we all thought it was king shit back then but doesn't quite stack up now.
